    2. the Seller undertakes that he will ensure that the pre-delivery work specified by the Manufacturer or Concessionaire is performed and that will use his best endeavours to obtain for the Purchaser for the Manufacturer or Concessionaire the benefit of any warranty or guarantee given by him to the Seller or to the Purchaser in respect of the goods and save in the case of consumer sales (as defined by the Sale of Goods (Implied Terms) Act 1979) all statements, conditions or warranties as to the quality of the goods or their fitness for any particular purpose whether express or implied by law or otherwise are hereby expressly excluded.
